Hi all, Just found this site while looking for information on Lap Band. Anyone out there being pressured by your doctor for bariatric surgery? I weigh 321 lbs now. I gained alot when I left the Sheriffs office. My blood pressure is great, cholesterol is below 200 but the good one is low. I have a strong feeling that this surgery will cause me more harm than good. I am getting older so losing weight is getting tougher. Any advice from others facing or have faced this decision?

It took my doc a year to talk me into the procedure and I'm glad he did. I love the band, have not had a fill yet though. With my doctors consent I eat about anything I want the band just keeps me from eating too much, It seems the band makes for easy weight loss for men who excercise.
